This $1,488,935 Project Grant award from the National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR), under CFDA 93.361 Nursing Research, aims to develop and implement a technology-aided approach to safety planning that addresses social determinants of health - home safety and access to community mental healthcare - to decrease suicide risk in rural-residing youth ages 12-17 who present to emergency departments. The key products and services to be delivered under this 5-year award include:

  1. Conducting focus groups and interviews with rural youth, caregivers, clinicians, and community members to optimize a safety planning intervention for rural emergency departments, including lethal means counseling and community resource connections.

  2. Applying human-centered co-design principles to develop and test a youth- and caregiver-facing tablet-based digital intervention to guide safety planning, evaluating its feasibility, acceptability, and impact on self-efficacy to improve suicide-related coping and home safety.

  3. Conducting a hybrid implementation-effectiveness study using a hospital-randomized stepped wedge design in four rural emergency departments to determine the effectiveness of the intervention compared to usual care, assessing outcomes, reach, adoption, implementation, and maintenance.

A sub-award to Trustees of Dartmouth College will provide statistical analysis, data management, recruitment support, and advisory board management for the project.
